It was Christmas' Eve and since you've just moved into the neighbourhood, you learned that the neighbours would gather and celebrate the night before Christmas altogether.
It was only a week you shifted in and you already had a crush on your neighbour who lived next to you.
You helped the mothers in the kitchen as they prepared the buffet table for later that night.
You:"Omma, can you lend me a hand here? I can't carry these-" A hand was placed under the tray and you flushed as your crush was there.
You:"Jung Daehyun... I asked for my mom..." You couldn't look at him straight in the eye but he shone you an eyesmile.
DH:"The mothers went out to lay the table. You might need my help here." Again, that smile.
Thankfully, he was there as the tray was heavy and as you both were done, he clapped his hands and ran to grab you a drink. You gratefully accepted it as he was your crush, obviously your heart was pounding madly.
As there were many of them present there, you weren't attended to frequently. Also, you saw that Daehyun wasn't there as well.
Your mom:"____-ah, hurry grab the camera!" Your mom ordered. You jogged into the house and caught hold of it and as you caught it, you ran out of the house once more.
However, you weren't considered lucky as you tumbled over something and your polaroid camera was damaged. Even though your knee bled, you crawled over to it and was almost mourning over the spoilt lens. Just then, a hand was offered to you.
Daehyun grinned as you accepted his hands and stood up. He bent down to look at your knees.
DH:"Hmm... It doesn't look that bad." He blew on the wound lightly and it made you shiver. He noticed the spoilt camera in your hands so he offered his.
Instead of a polaroid camera, his was a digital one. You thanked him again and jogged to where the mothers are. As you snapped a picture, you pressed on the playback button. After all, you know how a digital camera works. The picture you took wasn't that bad and you accidentally pressed the previous button. It wasn't intentional but you saw pictures of you.
The mothers then resumed their chattering and you turned to see Daehyun nervously scratching the back of his neck.
In a flash, he snatched the camera away from you.
DH:"That.... I-"
You:"You have been taking pictures of me?" He looked away, about to turn but you caught his arm.
DH:"Sorry, i don't intend any harm but I just think that you're worth a picture." He gulped, afraid to talk more but you then found a bench to sit on and you patted the space next to you. He obediently followed your orders.
You then asked for the camera from him and he hesitantly passed it to you. It made you laugh since there were really A LOT of pictures he snapped of you since Day-1.
You:"Even when i'm eating, seriously??" You kept on laughing but he was really embarrassed.
"KIDS, the carols, hurry up!" The parents were calling out for their children. You stood up, leaving the bench but Daehyun caught your wrist.
DH:"Don't .... go. We aren't kids anymore to sing the carol...." You didn't know that he was a shy guy. But you returned to your seat and he explained why your pictures were taken.
DH:"I need them for art, you know... erhh, portrait drawing! Yeah, that's it, portrait drawing...."
You knew it was a lie but you just played along with the joke.
You:"Hahah... really? Okay then if you need to draw a portrait of me, why not just give me a call some other time? I'm willing to be your model." You joked.
He blushed more and before Christmas approached, he asked you shyly for a picture to be taken, only you and him.
It made you more than happy. He stood next to you and held the camera at the front.
DH:"1...2...3..." *SNAP* The picture was captured. Coincidentally, your mother called for you and you had to leave. But he again, grabbed your wrist and made a quick confession.
DH:"Can we... hang out some other time? I need this camera to be filled with memories..." You nodded as you blushed and he let go of your wrist gently.
You were expecting for him to leave you his number, but instead, he gave you a band aid. It made you depressed at first but as you got home, there was something written behind it. It was his number followed by a short note.
*PS: Don't forget to wear this for your bleeding knee! And, a Merry Christmas to you (:* You chuckled since finally your crush took notice of you.
But on the other hand, Daehyun was still outside, browsing at the pic that he took with you just now. He wasn't looking at the camera as the picture was taken. He was admiring you. And only you. -END-
